Pharmaceuticals, 2010 Terrestrial animals must conserve water and NaCl to survive dry environments. The kidney reabsorbs 95% of the sodium filtered from the glomeruli before sodium reaches the distal connecting tubules. Excess sodium intake requires the renal kallikrein-kinin

Mutant plasminogen in hereditary angioedema is bypassing FXII/kallikrein to generate bradykinin
Frontiers in Physiology, 2023 Hereditary angioedema (HAE) is characterized by recurrent localized edema in various organs, which can be potentially fatal. There are different types of hereditary angioedema, which include genetic deficiency of C1 inhibitor (C1-INH) and hereditary ...

Optimization of Transfusion Therapy in Peritonitis
Общая реаниматология, 2009 Objective: to develop approaches to therapy for postoperative peritonitis on the basis of an analysis of changes into some indices of the kallikrein-kinin system, such as the key plasma proteolytic system and the blood proteinase potential, in this ...

A Missing Link Between a High Salt Intake and Blood Pressure Increase
Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2006 .: It is widely accepted that a high sodium intake triggers blood pressure rise. However, only one-third of the normotensive subjects were reported to show salt-sensitivity in their blood pressure.

The effect of increasing the sulfation level of chondroitin sulfate on anticoagulant specific activity and activation of the kinin system. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 Oversulfated chondroitin sulfate (OSCS) was identified as a contaminant in certain heparin preparations as the cause of adverse reactions in patients. OSCS was found to possess both plasma anticoagulant activity and the ability to activate prekallikrein ...

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.Abstract Background and Purpose Kininase I, comprising carboxypeptidase N (CPN) and carboxypeptidase M, regulates kinin activity and is up‐regulated during injury, inflammation and immune activation. Under these conditions, kininase I converts bradykinin and kallidin into des‐Arg kinins, primary endogenous agonists of the bradykinin B1 receptor (R ...

Vascular remodeling and the kallikrein-kinin system [PDF]
Journal of Clinical Investigation, 2005 Remodeling of the arterial wall occurs mainly as a consequence of increased wall stress caused by hypertension. In this issue of the JCI, Azizi et al. report that in humans with a kallikrein gene polymorphism that lowers kallikrein activity, the brachial artery undergoes eutrophic inward remodeling in the absence of hypertension or other hemodynamic ...

Clinical and Translational Allergy, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2026.ABSTRACT Background Garadacimab, a first‐in‐class, recombinant monoclonal antibody targeting activated FXII, is available in Germany for long‐term prophylaxis (LTP) of hereditary angioedema (HAE) since March 2025. We aimed to examine garadacimab real‐life treatment outcomes at our Berlin Angioedema Center of Reference and Excellence (ACARE), the ...

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 49, 3 September 2026.This study unveils an unrecognized pro‐inflammatory epitranscriptomic checkpoint in psoriasis. By installing m7G modifications on the 5′ UTR of Bdkrb1 mRNA, METTL1 enhances receptor stability to orchestrate keratinocyte‐driven neutrophil recruitment via p38 MAPK signaling.
